You could leave New York.

I don't worry so much about people stealing my car as much as I do
them stealing the stuff in my car.  Which is one of the best things
about having a station wagon with a trunk.  Your average thief is
going to think that the engine is under the "hood" and not seeing
anything inside to steal, move on.

I just put in a fake alarm flashing LED.
